But first:

From Politico: Trump hails ‘manufacturing miracle’ as factories bleed jobs. “The president’s anti-trade agenda and a pandemic-induced recession have combined to shutter factories and accelerate trends toward automation.”

A don’t-miss minute — complete with disclaimers — advocating his reelection.  (Thanks, Joey!)

And now:

David M.: “What’s your take on the WheelTug demonstration?  […]

But first:

Rachel Maddow on Michael Caputo.  Beyond words.  Must watch.  We desperately have to find an off-ramp for Carl and Tom.

As noted last week, 81 Nobel-Prize-winning scientists have endorsed Biden.

Maybe those of […]

You can skip both those if you already agree — I offer them for sharing with your Trump-supporting friends […]
